With the continuous growth of China's highway tunnel construction,the need for high-quality tunnel light environment is becoming increasingly urgent,good highway tunnel lighting can provide an important guarantee for safe driving.In recent years,the large-scale application of LED light sources,different LED light sources have great differences in color temperature,which have great differences in the visual efficacy and psychological feelings of drivers in different color temperature tunnel lighting environment.The existing specifications do not specify the color temperature value of different tunnel segments,leading to confusion in tunnel lighting color temperature settings,bringing security risks to the safe operation of tunnels.Based on the analysis of the characteristics of tunnel lighting and driver visual characteristics,this paper sorts out the relevant literature on the impact of LED light source color temperature on the visual efficacy of human eyes and the impact of color temperature on the psychological of drivers,so as to better study the comprehensive impact of LED light source color temperature on drivers,and promote the safe development of highway tunnel lighting.
